Thanks everyone for your input and yes staying with att best buy must have the wrong model number listed and as far as screen protectors I always have had inv. shield on just about every phone I've owned so that would be top of the list. So the phone is handling ics well I gather from your comments as well.

[Nexus S General] Warren_Orange:
ditto darkshadow.

Can't you get a GN or a G2 and pay a little for the handset or wait for a few months till these handsets are cheaper?
[Nexus S General] E.Cadro:
Well the GN isn't available through att as far as I know and the g2 is a little pricy for me at 199 or 249 depending on the model. So maybe waiting to see if they come down in the next couple of months would be option. Thanks for your opinions. ;)

Not that I don't rate the NS or anything, I have just bought the phone and think its wicked. But the hardware is 16 months old already.

Is there no way you can get the NS on a 12 month contract but pay a little more each month, then in a year get the GN for free?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Pirate:
Sorry for the long read, this is half rant and half question.

Alright, I got a captivate a long time ago (about a year and 3 months ago), loved it, rooted it and installed cyanogenmod as soon as I got home, changed roms and kernals constantly, did whatever I wanted to do.

About 3 months ago my screen stopped working.. So I take it in and they give me a refurb captivate, looked brand new so I didn't mind. However, when I tried to get into recovery it didn't work, the 3-button-method just wouldn't work at all, period, so I try to get it to work, gets stuck in bootloop.. pretty much every time I try to flash a rom something goes wrong and I get stuck in a bootloop but I can usually get into recovery or download mode because I had CWM.

So I'm on maxq's rom and it's working great for the past 2 months, decide not to mess with kernals or anything, however today I decided to try ICS, load it up, everything's fine, then I realize my soft keys aren't working, search for awhile, can't find anything, finally just manually start looking through the rom pages, and someone said that if you have the problem to just odin back to stock and try again.

I odin back to stock, but now 3 button combo doesn't work.. So more searching, find that I can run the 3e fix by TRusselo, doesn't work because I need root, more searching on how to root without recovery, find "SuperOneClick", root with superoneclick, then run 3e fix, everything is working fine, I check my email and load the ICS files onto SD card, go to restart and go into recovery mode.. Bricked, stuck in a bootloop, won't go to recovery, won't go to download, nothing.

Why the **** was I able to do anything I wanted with my old captivate, but if I even root this one it bricks? And what did I do to even brick it? I only ran the 2 programs and both of them worked flawlessly.

I guess my only option is to usb jig it, but honestly now I'm convinced that the phone is just faulty, I want to run the thing over.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
If you would have actually searched you would have known it was a bug in the glitch. There are atleast 40 pages about that.

If you flashed ICS you should know it takes 2 flashes for it to work first time. Having a jig around is always a good idea as well.

Stuff doesn't work as intended. Keep in mind everything is still in dev and not all devices are the same. But you should have searched a little more and it would have ran =/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbc663:
U def don't need a jig. If it's booting it's not bricked. Try removing battery, start Odin, hold down power and down, plug in and put battery in. This should bring u to download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Pirate:
I did start to see a few people with the problem, however many people do not follow up with what fixes their problem, and I did what a few people had said to do.

I should of mentioned that I did flash a few times, 3 total I think, it was getting stuck at boot.

I understand that **** happens but honestly my old captivate could always get into recover mode and download mode no matter what, it's extremely frustrating that something changed with the newer models. One of my questions was what caused the brick? I did nothing wrong from what I see and it was running perfectly until I tried to restart/boot into recovery.

Oh and mbc663, thanks but download mode doesn't work at all, nor does recovery obviously.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
I can't say exactly what you are doing. Best advice I can do Re download your .zips Flash back to stock GB and try again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
Last year, I had issues with my original Cap, and got a "new" one. I learned that the bulk of the Caps going out as replacements are referbs. The one I got was a 1008 build, and does not have 3 button recovery. There are minor differences with each and every Cap that's out there. That's why some have issues with ROM's and some don't, some can over clock like crazy, and some can't at all. My guess is you have a 1008 as well, but that really doesn't matter. You just have a different device and as you seem to already have learned.

It sounds like there is more research you need to do. Even though the devices are a bit different, if you are having issues with ROM's loading, then I would say it's more of a procedure issue, than one with your device.

My procedure, is,

Remove SD/Micro SD

Odin1 Click to Stock JF6, and Master Clear(This will erase EVERYTHING)

Root with One-Click Root

Use Sideload Wonder Machine to install ROM Manager, copy update.zip and 3buttonFix to my SD, then reboot into recovery

Once in recovery I install the 3buttonFix, and install my new ROM

For me

this has proven to be a very good method versus going from one ROM to another. The Master Clear cleans EVERYTHING off of your SD, so there is no chance for anything to corrupt your new install. Anytime I read a post of a install gone FUBAR, USUALLY a Flash To Stock/Master Clear (FTS/MC) fixes it

Before using Odin 1 Click, check your devices build number!! If it is higher than 1012, I would NOT recommend using 1 click, there is a higher chance of hard brick on the newer devices
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Kangi...if you flash a firmware package without bootloaders, you won't have to do the 3 button fix every time. And if you keep a copy of the update.zip on your pc you don't have to even root, let alone bother with side loading ROM manager.

Cezar has a no boots jf6 and after you run that, you can still use master clear in one click.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Sounds like you got one of the refurbs that is missing the SBL. Have you looked at this thread? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129821

I've not had this problem myself but it sounds like that might help. If I remember reading correctly, once this is flashed it should stick as long as you don't flash any other bootloaders on top of it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Its not missing the sbl. The sbl it has doesn't respond to key combos. Derpa sherpa moment for samsung I guess?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Rofl yeah...if it was missing the sbl it would be fuggin bricked!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
I know, thanks. I'm such a creature of habit, I started doing it like this a bit over a year ago, and has worked flawlessly for me(just jinxed myself!) so I never saw a reason to "fix what aint broke".

I'll take a look at Cezar's thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Yeah, missing SBL was a poor choice of words. My bad.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Pirate:
I didn't think anyone else was going to reply to this thread, whoops.

Thank you for helping me, but I'm still having trouble.

Rom manager doesn't show up in Market, Sideload wonder machine tells me [INSTALL FAILED OLDER SDK] with any apk of Rom manager I find.

How do you reboot into recovery when 3buttonfix hasn't been applied yet?

This sucks and is extremely frustrating, I feel like my captivate is just trolling me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
When I get home later tonight I'll link you everything you'll need. Again, VERY important, what is your build number? If it's 1012 or higher, don't use Odin 1 click

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Pirate:
Ok, finally got it working, I did exactly what you said, I found the rom manager 3.00.002 or whatever and that worked with sideloader, it took some messing around with but I'm running ICS now, thank you so much man, you've helped me so much, and now I can change roms and keep up to date without worrying about constantly soft-bricking.

As for my build number, I'm not sure, the only thing I see under build number in settings is: "IML74k"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
The build number is actually under your battery, and looks like 10.06, 10.07, 10.08 and so on. It is the production date

Edit** And as a side note, do NOT try to use the 3buttonFix with a GB ROM, it WILL brick your phone in a really bad way. ONLY use it with 2.1 or 2.2
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Pirate:
Is it weird that I don't have a build number? It seems I can't post pictures without a few more posts, maybe this will work: deleted

And thanks for the warning on the 3buttonfix, I'm going to have to read more about bootloaders though, I don't understand what you and studacris were talking about earlier in the thread, haha.

Just got a few questions please hear me out ok , sorry if I posted in wrong forum

(running htc dev 2.3.3 on my gsm desire )

1.	After I soff with revolutionary , does unrevoked 3 root method work ? or should I downgrade to froyo then unrevoked 3 (wanna gain root so I can change roms )

2.	On revolutionary I get a invalid beta code (tried caps , lower case typing in every way I could think off ) what am I doing wrong ?

3.	Are there any other ways to soff my desire besides revolutionary ?

4.	Other ways to root my desire? Which are easy as unrevoked ?

5.	Are there any android 4.0 roms for the desire which have the onscreen home back etc buttons ?

6.	Know a stable low battery consumption rom with sense 2.1 (after the same sense found in dhd , not after 3.0 etc found in sensation )

7.	Whats a good miui rom which is in English and stable (don’t care if it’s in uk English etc) for the desire ?

8.	Are there any custom roms which use rru method of transfer ? same as htc’s method of transfer

9.	What normally causes the system to freeze ? when I use the stock htc camera , phone etc occasionally my phone freezes up for like a 1 min then reboots ? doesn’t occur with 3rd party apps

10.	What causes the system to not shut down ? I know it’s not my apps even without them it still occurs

11.	Is it possible to dual boot another os on this phone ?

12.	How do I know if I need to install a radio ?

I am almost a total noob but anyhow I decided to drop these questions as I couldn’t find a straight forward answer and plus my phone not being able to shut down when I need it to is a major inconvenience eg when I am at the airport or area’s which require phone to be off

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Alot of your questions do have a straight answer on the xda forum. Like the miui rom, try the miui-xj ! Easy to find. I am also new to flashing and solving problems don't get me wrong. Spend some more time reading here. And if you have to switch off your phone you can also put your phone in flightmode....pretty easy. Good luck finding your answers, maybe somebody else can give them to you but I have simply not the knowledge.

With kind regards

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] touch of jobo:
1,4 - Once you're S-Off, you can flash a custom hboot if you like, you can flash a custom recovery (both via fastboot), and from this custom recovery you can flash custom ROMs, which are generally rooted.

6 - I personally still use baadnwz/InsertCoin-1.4.4 (when I'm not playing around with newer and fancier and/or more experimental ROMs) but that one is no longer being developed. You could look at tamirda/RevolutioN and/or some of coolexe's work, among others. Look at the 'Desire Index'-thread in the development forum.

9 - undervolting, overheating, loose connections, corrupt storage, (moisture-)damaged circuitry, …

10 - Settings->Power->Fast boot <-- uncheck it if it's checked.

11 - Not quite, but you can make nandroid+ext backups for different ROMs that you can then restore and boot. Preferably ROMs that use the same hboot.

I have no personal experience with revolutionary or with the htc 2.3.3 ruu.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
12 - most of the time its recommended to flash the radio to the latest one.first run the Rom you want if the signal is bad you can always flash a newer radio later. And always read ALL the info on the OP from the rom you want.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexei_kom:
You will probably have issues with wifi or camera if you have an older radio version that is required by the installed ROM.

In some ROM threads it is specified explicitly which radio to use. And you can always ask (in the ROM thread) if somebody already didn't ask that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javelar:
7. Both Miui-xj and Miui-au are in english and i believe stable. Been using au lately but used xj for about a month for daily use with no issues.

8. Are you refering to OTA (over the air updates) if so both the above rom's support this feature.

12. I believe it depends on the rom you are using, tried a few rom's with my old radio 5.11.05.27 and never had an issue (most of them recommended the latest radio) upgraded a few days with 5.17.05.23 and the only thing i noticed was a little better wifi coverage. (could also be placebo effect :o )

When in cwm use track pad to scroll and select not the power button. Any ROM in the dev can be flashed, just download and copy to your sd card.

Just going to add to the above reply. You can scroll with the volume rocker and the trackpad. Making a selection is done by clicking the trackpad. Hitting the power button in CWM just hides and unhides the text/menu.
